The Unthinkable Happens
Official notice was served today. I’m now teetering on the edge of the gaping abyss that is unemployment; my only hope is to take a running jump and catch the polyester trousers of the last person hanging in the Job Centre queue.
Searching for jobs is a very demoralising task. I’ve seen a number that take my fancy, but they either want 10 years experience in a skill that I’ve never heard of (like merkin adhesion) or they’re so ridiculously popular that the recruiting company has rigged a shredder to its fax machine, so the abundance of CVs are filed appropriately.
Having said that, I do have a couple of promising interviews. I just need to overcome the fear and hope my charisma shines through. Which means I’m doomed.

It may be a cliche, but I find picturing the interviewer naked helps. Unless it's a stunning 20-something blond that's doing the interviewing. In which case sporting an erection is unlikely to help much.
NF - Is 'bluffing it' yet another new cool activity that I've not heard of, but everyone is secretly doing? It sounds a little sordid.
Is that when you flash your desklight if you want people to join in?
I think 'Bluffing it' sounds like a good office activity to boost morale within a team. How long do you think it will be before 'Bluffing It' websites are introduced and start sending out spam emails
